### 4/5 — Effacer liste

*2026-04-17*

Pourquoi on ne peut plus effacer les listes passées

### 4/5 — Quero dar uma Sugestão

*2025-11-30*

Quando escanear o código ele ir para o produto, para colocar o preço, e não ficar parado na tela de scanner.

### 2/5 — Problem !!!

*2025-11-21, version 9.0.1*

The latest update doesn’t work with iOS 18.7.2
There is now two search bars at the top of many pages. The top bar which doesn’t work ( no reaction when you press the search button) visually cover the working search bar which is no longer accessible. Please correct because the best shopping app is now almost useless for all food search function.

### 3/5 — Tela

*2025-08-30*

Tem uma barra de pesquisa permanente na tela que prejudica a utilização do app, favor corrigir, iPhone 13 iOS 18.6.2

### 3/5 — Please fix

*2025-06-28, version 9.0.1*

Is very glitchy now. I can search or add.

### 3/5 — Bitte weiter machen … und in Deutsch

*2025-05-29*

Aktuell: sehr fehlerhaft, keine Updates … Schade … es war eine großartige App. … frühere Bewertung: Please more ... translation in German needed. Otherwise very good app to compare prices without ads. And no Abo. This is wonderful. Thank you so much

**Developer response:** Thank you for taking time to review IntelliList and for your kind words. I really appreciate it 🙂

### 2/5 — Search function no longer works.

*2025-02-17, version 9.0.1*

IntelliList, once a highly regarded shopping list application, appears to have been abandoned by its developers. The app’s last update was in March 2021, and since then, users have reported significant issues, notably the malfunctioning of the search function. Attempts to reach customer support via email have gone unanswered, suggesting a lack of ongoing maintenance and support. While the app previously offered features like barcode scanning, price comparisons, and list synchronization, its current state renders it unreliable. Users are advised to consider alternative shopping list applications that receive regular updates and offer responsive customer support.

### 4/5 — Recently noticed an issue with the scanner

*2025-01-29, version 9.0.1*

Below is my previous review (which was 5 stars at the time) but currently I have noticed that the scanning function is not working.  Will you please look into this and fix the scanning issue ?  Thank you! 

Previous review:

Been using this app for quite awhile! It has so many great features & the developer continues to provide free updates!!! I purchased the unlimited features, so I have the ability to create unlimited lists & items. The price comparison for items is invaluable! It saves me money every time I shop and provides the ability to keep track of the price changes of an item. I can organize items within a store, add photos & add items to the vast database if I scan an item that isn’t already in the database. There are many more features & flexibility. The developer is very responsive & has continued to update the app with very nice enhancements! Really appreciate the free updates & also that there is NO subscription & recurring costs that many apps are going to. Thanks to the continued dedication of the developer!

### 3/5 — Best Shopping List

*2025-01-14, version 9.0.1*

I have been using this app since day one and I have many hours into it and it works fantastic,  for the last few months the search bar is not right one over the top of the other making it very difficult to use. Please look into this.

### 3/5 — Não funciona mais

*2024-12-14*

Infelizmente o app não funciona corretamente desde a última atualização do iOS

### 1/5 — Since ios 18

*2024-11-10, version 9.0.1*

The Search Bar is all messed up.  Presents 2 of them, one over the top of the other.  Basically making it unusable.  Loved the app but now I'm in search of another.

### 1/5 — Not intuitive, hard to navigate

*2024-11-02, version 9.0.1*

Interface is not intuitive and hard to navigate. Lots of unnecessary menus. Comes with a list of items pre-installed with no data. I'd rather add my own as I buy them, than have a list of things I never buy. To delete them you have to go into a separate "delete" menu and select each one you want to delete. There are several hundred. Not worth my time.

### 1/5 — Can’t scan

*2024-08-19, version 9.0.1*

Please update the app. I’ve been using it for many years, but the scan feature no longer functions with the last iOS update. 

Please fix it so I can go back to 4 stars

### 1/5 — Pessimo

*2026-02-17*

Diz q não tem q pagar mas só pode adicionar até limite X. Não é bom

### 1/5 — Problema com login

*2026-01-02*

Bom dia.
Ainda estou aguardando um retorno positivo. 

Há cerca de 3 anos, fiz a assinatura vitalícia do aplicativo no meu antigo iPhone (14 ProMax), mas acabei perdendo o aparelho e, com isso, também o acesso à conta e aos aplicativos baixados.

Já mandei vários e-mails e ainda não tive retorno. 

Gostaria de saber se, fornecendo meus dados, seria possível reativar a assinatura no meu novo celular, para que eu possa voltar a utilizar o app por completo.

### 1/5 — Was good

*2025-10-18, version 9.0.1*

There is a bug in the app where the search bars overlap rendering the app useless. I have had many failed attempts to contact the developer. Looks like this application has been abandoned. Too bad. It was good.

### 1/5 — Barre de recherche ou de création produit non fonctionnelle

*2025-09-12*

Je pense qu’une mise à jour de l’application est à effectuer car la barre de recherche ou de création de produits est en double et c’est tout une démarche pour pouvoir taper ce que l’on veut. 
J’ai effectué l’achat mais je regrette clairement !!!

### 1/5 — Fecha sem motivo

*2025-07-27*

Aplicativo fecha sem motivo

### 1/5 — Não cumpre o que promete

*2025-02-06*

De início adorei o app e depois de pagar o valor que SERIA ÚNICO, pude fazer todas as alterações que precisa. Até que, 1 mês depois do pagamento, uma janela abriu e me proibiu de continuar alterando os itens se eu não fizesse o tal pagamento ÚNICO NOVAMENTE!!! Enviei e-mail pelo app e nunca me responderam! Quantas vezes o valor ÚNICO será cobrado? Me sinto enganada e lesada!

### 1/5 — A lot of problems

*2025-01-26, version 9.0.1*

I have had this app for years. It keeps deleting my list, adding random search bars, and requesting me to repay subscription. Unfortunately I am deleting and starting over on a new app.

### 1/5 — Aplicativo não funciona e sem suporte técnico

*2025-01-16*

O aplicativo deixou de permitir alterações de informações. Solicitei ajuda à equipe do aplicativo, mas não obtive resposta. O aplicativo foi pago e está em desuso por ter deixado de funcionar.

### 1/5 — App is messed up

*2024-12-03, version 9.0.1*

Something happened, can’t sinc with spouse phone. When I put something in there I have to close out and back in before I can put the next item in. I have deleted the app, shut the phone off, turned phone back on, reinstalled app. That created a real mess because everything I had in the app got deleted.

### 1/5 — Não está funcionando

*2024-12-02*

O aplicativo era muito bom, porém faz 3 anos que não tem atualização. Após a última atualização do IOS o app parou de funcionar!! Favor atualizar, pois paguei vitalício esse app!!

ATUALIZAÇÃO EM 2/12/24

O dono do app respondeu outro usuário mas não resolveu meu problema.
Meu app não está deixando acrescentar nenhum item através do código de barras.

Por favor preciso de uma resolução.

### 5/5 — Best Shopping App

*2026-02-05, version 9.0.1*

I’ve been using this app daily for several years. I love that I can organize my shopping around the store that I’m shopping in. For my favorite grocery store, which is huge, I set up all the aisles and mapped them according to my route through the store. I’m able to zip through the store quite rapidly. I’ve found workarounds to map other stores in a similar way. Used in conjunction with my store shopping app, I can find the items, get the prices, and then put them in Intellilist. It’s a much better interface than my store shopping app, but that app has a few features that this one doesn’t. Together they make me a power grocery shopper.

### 5/5 — Supprimer

*2026-01-13, version 9.0.1*

je ne peux plus supprimer un article dans ma liste

### 5/5 — Application géniale

*2026-01-11*

L application est très pratique ,intuitive , prise en main rapide 
vraiment merci aux créateurs

### 5/5 — Good App

*2025-06-05, version 9.0.1*

Good app but needs a family share option

### 5/5 — Melhor app de compras

*2024-12-31*

Finalmente achei um app que consigo fazer um histórico de preços por supermercado para cada produto que procuro, além de ser possível escanear o código de barras, armazenar fotos do produto e acrescentar outros produtos que o app não conhece ou ainda não estão na base de dados. Estou usando bastante esse app para atualizar as fotos de produtos brasileiros e acrescentar os produtos que ainda não estão disponíveis. Acredito que em menos de um ano não vou precisar adicionar produtos mas apenas atualizar a foto das embalagens e dos preços que vai mudando ao longo do tempo.

### 5/5 — Great app but..

*2024-11-19, version 9.0.1*

Great app but it would be even better if we could export the items with their pricing history. Or mass deletion. Also to default tax that's selected.

### 5/5 — IntelliList

*2024-10-12*

Bug no iOS 18

**Developer response:** The user messed up the account on his device by using multiple App Store accounts. Now he is trying to restore an in-app purchase from an account he never used before to do the purchase. Obviously the restore fails. A thing few users know is that sales and in-app purchases on the App Store are managed directly by Apple, and developers cannot do anything about them. Developers don't even know any detail about the purchase.
So we answered to tens of email form this user, instructing him on how to switch App Store account to use a different one. Unfortunately he refuses to follow our steps, so we suggested him to contact Apple support directly, but he refuses that too.
We have done all we can to help him.

### 5/5 — Top!

*2024-02-27*

Baixei, usei e comprei! Resolveu um grande problema, obrigado ♥️

**Developer response:** Thank you for taking time to review IntelliList and for your kind words. I really appreciate it 🙂

### 5/5 — IntelliList

*2024-02-05, version 9.0.1*

Très bien fait, parfait pour mes besoins

### 5/5 — Excellent app

*2024-02-04, version 9.0.1*

I am extremely pleased with the features of this app. I have been using a “shopping list” app for years and while it provided me with the basic list of shopping items, I wanted more functionality such as the ability to compare prices at various stores and the ability to enter prices whether the item was packaged with multiple items or being sold individually. 
This app provides everything I was looking for and more, much more. 
Kudos to the developers of this product. 
It’s the best shopping app I have come across.
